KTM rider Thomas Jones of Ne-
vada rounded out the top five in class.
Five riders made up the Women's
Pro division, where Brandy Richards
(KTM) began her defense of the
Pro Women title on the right foot.
She got off to a great start by win-
ning, finishing well ahead of Lauren
Woods (KTM) and Kaitlyn Jacobs
(KTM). Richards led from start to
end and had plenty of room to spare
at the finish line, taking the check-
ered flag more than seven minutes
ahead of Woods.
However, it was much closer—just

Woods and third-place Jacobs.
Britney Gallegos (Husqvarna) and
Sharon Mowell (Yamaha) completed

riders. However, Lynn didn't waste
any time slicing his way through the
17-rider field. He was already in third
place heading into the second lap,
where he set the fastest lap time
of the race with a 9:47.832. By the
end of the lap, Lynn was leading the

the lead away from Kawasaki rider
Jake Alvarez (Precision Concepts
Kawasaki) and ended up taking the
checkered flag 47 seconds ahead of
him for the win.
"I was dead last at the start," said
Lynn. "I took off and made some
quick passes before the first K-rail
section. Once we got there, only
three people hit the K-rails and that
moved me to fourth. I made it up to
second and just trailed Jake for a
couple of laps. I got past him and
just tried to build a lead from there."
"I came out of the first lap in first,"
Alverez said, "but Tyler was on it,
took the lead, and I couldn't catch
up to him. I've been off the bike for a
while so it's awesome to kick off the
season with a podium."
KTM rider Angus Riordan, who
has a lot of experience in enduro-
cross racing, bounced back and
forth between third and fourth place
throughout the race, but the Cali-
fornian nabbed the final spot on the
podium with no one in the class
around him. For a while, he diced
with his brother, Will, before pulling
away after lap seven. Will Riordan
ended up fourth.
"My experience in endurocross
really came in handy today with the
pro sections," said Riordan. "My
brother and I were battling at the
halfway point and then he got stuck
